Upon arrival, detectives identified the homeowners as William Kenneth Schultea, 42, and Britney Alicia Campbell, 42, both of Livingston, TX. They also discovered a deceased male, identified as James Michael McClanhan, 50, of Livingston, TX. A subsequent search warrant revealed a large quantity of narcotics in the home.
